One of the "competitions within the
competition" at the Team Aquatic Supplies BC AAA Championships is
the SwimBC / Team Aquatic Supplies Regional
Athlete Development (R.A.D.) Awards.
These were created to recognize
well-rounded swimming abilities and to assist developing athletes
in any of the 14 years or younger age categories at BC AAA
Championships.
"T.A.S" and Swim BC present the high-scoring
swimmer (male or female) from each of the SwimBC regions with a
cheque for $125.00, based on the following formula:
9 points are awarded for a win, 7 for second, 6 for third,
5, 4, 3, 2, 1, respectively through to eighth place. Points are
added together for each swimmer (individual events only) and prizes
awarded at both BC Short Course AAA Age Group Championships and the
BC Long Course AAA Championships.
Each winner will be presented with a cheque
following each competition.
